TECH
Our 34mm wide AM728 rims have become our most popular asymmetric product thanks to its versatility. The 28mm inner width offers a wide and stable tire profile for your enduro tires, without becoming square-edged. You can easily get away with running 2.2’s or 2.5’s, but 2.3” - 2.4” tires are the sweet spot. The EN version has an extra wrap of 3k carbon fiber around the nipple bed, and reinforced sidewalls support G-Out forces, and increased rim stiffness, increasing suitability for aggressive riders over 200 pounds.
More air volume, a wider stance, and the bead seat retention system will keep your tires in place on race day and provide an incredibly solid tubeless platform. Wheel stiffness is further increased with a deep profile, allowing for cornering and charging through rough terrain with more speed and confidence than ever before.
WARRANTY
For Non-Pro Series Rims: From the date of purchase, 3-year Standard Warranty.
For Pro Series Rims: From the date of purchase, 5-year Pro Warranty as standard and an upgraded optional lifetime Premium Warranty with minimum charge.
Crash Replacement: It is applicable with the same period as the warranty time range that you purchased for the rims with 10% /25% discount for Non-Pro series /Pro series.

Zack : Upgrade to LB rims after raving review from fellow riders and wasn't disappointed. Rims stayed true despite 2 crashes, with 1 puncturing the tyres even with an insert.
Patient and prompt superb service as I went for a custom wheelset with DT240EXP and upgraded 54T. Looking forward to my next wheelset for a new project

Philip : Here are a few shots with the built wheelset. I used black spokes with your rims and your brass oil-slick nipples. Amazing products, and my only complaint is that I wish I had built these sooner!!
